Chapter 426: A Different Kind of Spirit World

"Halt, spot check!"

As Aaron and the other two walked out of the plaza and turned into a street, two investigators wearing the black uniforms of the Suppression Bureau and sporting the double-sword emblem walked toward them: "Take out your Identity Cards!"

'Oh no!'

Keni glanced at Aaron and Sharuke with a guilty conscience: 'We don't even have a single fake Identity Card on us right now... It's all because those two are too conspicuous.'

Seeing Keni's pale complexion and Sharuke's posture as he reached for his kukri without hesitation, the two investigators both looked delighted: "Caught some fish!"

They quickly drew their firearms and aimed at the three: "Squat down, hands on your heads, or we'll open fire immediately!"

"Allow me to ask one thing first, are you 'Colonizers'?"

A kind of obscure Mysterious aura kept spreading, like a radar, revealing his presence.

Radiance descended, and from within it walked out several Sun Clerics wearing pure white robes.

Aaron nodded; the previous Extraordinarys who had their identities exposed were also captured because their Identity Cards were subsequently disabled, leaving them unable to move an inch. He certainly wouldn't be so foolish, unless he was intentionally fishing.

Then, he handed over three advertising business cards and three keys with a smile on his face.

Scorching!

Snap!

The Extraordinary Ability belonging to the 'Red' Fifth Primordial Substance, the 'Blood Lord', was activated.

An illusory and transparent figure of an Evil Spirit wearing complex and gorgeous court attire appeared once more, its eyes instantly imbued with humanity, before it took a step forward, crossed into the void, and vanished.

Aaron raised his eyes slightly, a brilliant smile appearing on his face.

Burning!

Even though they were wearing exclusive Talismans, it had no effect whatsoever.

The temperature in the room dropped suddenly, and the surrounding environment inexplicably became gloomy.

"Warning ineffective, fire!"

Bang bang!

The boss, wearing a monocle and checking the bill at the front desk, looked up with a fawning smile on his face.

"Not 'Colonizers', yet you dare to come after me?"

This was Aaron using the 'Philosopher's' Cognitive Tampering ability to make the hotel boss mistake the business cards for Identity Cards.

"Hello, respected guest, would you like a room?"

In their eyes, it was as if two small suns were burning, locking directly onto Aaron: "'Evil Spirit'?! Accept the judgment of the Light!"

Aaron took out his wallet.

"No problem, please present your Identity Cards." The boss rubbed his hands together.

When the patrol police checked and the tax department audited the accounts at the end of the month, these guest registration details would be sent to a place with a Turing Machine to be entered and checked one by one, at which point there would be a 100% chance of a problem.

Under this Light, the disordered Spirit World was gradually becoming 'ordered'.

Pure white towers rose from the ground one after another; no matter where one was, it seemed one could see that magnificent architecture like the Babel Tower.

At the same moment, Aaron was fiddling with a hard card in his hand.

"The target must have just arrived, otherwise we would never have had no discovery of them before." A woman's voice came from another pitch-black Colonized Armor.

Keni watched Aaron walk into a hotel, couldn't help but cover her forehead, and lowered her voice: "Don't you dare use those two Identity Cards."

It was only the size of a child's palm, with a series of holes and numbers on it; it was loot taken from the two investigators.

The two investigators didn't care about any of this and opened fire directly.

'They've actually established a strict surveillance system even in the Spirit World? If I stay too long, I'll definitely be discovered?'

Wisteria Inn.

"Although it's troublesome, guest registration is mandatory; this is Empire law, please wait a moment, guest..."

"The target is very strong and acts without any scruples... This is a bit strange, it's the style of those ancient Extraordinarys!" Baldwin pondered for a moment, then suddenly shouted: "Notify the Police Station, I want their reported cases from the last few days... Such an unscrupulous Extraordinary would definitely not have committed only one crime!"

The two investigators immediately clutched their hearts and fell to the ground in agony.

In reality, after possessing the ability of 'Spirit World Teleportation', he could have completely taken the two of them directly back to the Resistance Army base in South Innis.

Aaron walked several steps in succession, switching many Spirit World Coordinates, only to be shocked to find that he could not escape the monitoring range of the White Tower.

"Is this... is this still the Dream Realm of my cognition?"

But Aaron didn't want to do that, and even vaguely hoped that the Suppression Bureau would come knocking, actively providing him with some research material.

"I know."

According to Keni's identification, it was confirmed that this was an 'Identity Card'.

"Caught another one, an Illegal Dreamer from the Mortal World!"

"But they are already useless; the Suppression Bureau will immediately ban the encoding of these two Identity Cards, and using them rashly is intentionally exposing our whereabouts."

Those identity codes were, of course, also nonsense written according to a pattern.

'In this layer of history, I previously only used the special nature of the 'Spirit World' to teleport and shift... If I want to explore properly, I still have to use a scapegoat to avoid encountering any accidents.'

The boss opened the thick registration book and began to record the numbers on the Identity Cards, comparing them against the numbers wanted by the Empire to confirm that the other party was not a wanted criminal.

"Yes, give me three single rooms."

After entering the room and locking the door, Aaron lay on the bed, stroked the 'Green Forest Ring of Power', and entered a state of Meditation.

"You go and seize the spoils on them, then we should go."

Not until they stepped into the elevator and watched the iron gate close and the elevator doors shut did Keni ask in a low voice: "How did you do it?"

"There are always more solutions than troubles."

The special bullets with Mysterious patterns froze in mid-air, suddenly disintegrating into countless fragments.

The figures of the three vanished rapidly.

A few minutes later, several pitch-black, tall Colonized Armors arrived at the scene and saw the two corpses.

The head of one of the Colonized Armors opened, revealing Baldwin's ugly face: "To be able to finish them both off in such a short time, is it an existence that has unlocked the Fourth Primordial Substance? A suspected 'Scarlet Noble'? We've caught a big fish."

Aaron was surprised in his heart: "You... are Clerics of the Sun Church in the Mortal World?"

He looked up and immediately saw a pure white sun; It resided at the highest point of the Spirit World, radiating boundless Light.

Aaron smiled slightly, though he also knew that this little trick of his could only fool them for a moment.

Then, Keni watched as Aaron casually pulled out three business cards from the cafe earlier and shoved them to the boss: "Hurry up."

……

Aaron sneered and suddenly snapped his fingers.

This was Aaron's first reaction upon entering the Spirit World.

Aaron touched his own brow, looked at the pure white Tower in the city, and urged aloud.

"Not an ancient Evil Spirit that has lost its sanity, but a practitioner of the 'Underworld' Taoism."

The leading Cleric of the Sun Church said proudly: "Of course... we are the branch of the church stationed in the Dream Realm; all Illegal Dreamers of the Mortal World are subject to our judgment! Repent, sinner!"
